Oh no - a MARROW in my organic vegetable box...

[morningpaper]

A MARROW - are they having a LAUGH? I thought this was just a comedy vegetable for flower shows.

Does anyone have a recipe involving marrow which is TASTY?

Anything which involves using the marrow as CONTAINER does not count.

I'm with Riverford but haven't been getting a single marrow ner ner ner ner ner!!!!!

as for you Marina I am appalled: first you think david Tennant is fey, and now I learn you once put marmite in onion soup............

The marrow growers are RIVERFORD I'm afraid!

ScummyMummy: I've been to St John - bloody hell I spent about £100 on rabbit liver on toast and pigs trotters - I had a stomach like concrete for two days and swear I needed a colonic irrigation afterwards. The bone marrow was AWFUL, I don't know why they didn't just serve up a dog chew and have done with it.

Really, mp? Sorry to hear that. I found it v toothsome.

give it to my mum shes the only person i know who likes marrow, i think that its disgusting and nothing could hide the tasste of it sorry i can't suggest anyhting for you.

Boy, your organic box schemes are a bit grim if you can't say what you like and dislike. That's awful!

I will not hear a bad word against the marrow.

I LOVE them, lightly boiled with loads of black pepper - YUM!!!!

Careful, guys - the marrow's listening...

Are you all scared now?

Must have been terrified - LOL!

pmsl - that's unexpected!

Made me laugh, Caligula!

I've never heard of a marrow...from what I got off google, it just looks like a courgette? Is some sort of horrific mutant courgette?

My mum used to make marrow & ginger jam - which both her & my dad loved, but Ii thought it was horrible!

However I love stuffed marrows - specially one I do which has a bit of Dolmio type tomato sauce in the bottom, then a layer of ham, then crack in a couple of eggs, then sprinkle with cheese, & bake. It's fantastic

A marrow is a courgette that everyone forgot about.

LOL Bobby- A Horrific Mutant Courgette then. People actually eat those? All pithy and tough.

Marina I'm PMSL at your first post on this thread. Fan-f*cking-tastic !!!!
